“Hey, up there. Hello?
Can I have your attention?
I’m coming from the other side:
The side of life you are a part of
Yet so far apart from.
I sense reality as it is —
Without those messy questions
Your intellect poses,
Those limiting “supposes”
Always purporting
as if you knew.
Guess what?
You don’t know.
I was created and never question it.
You question whether
You were created
Or just happen to be
A scientific spasm
Randomly spurted out
Like a mushroom from
A rotted log . . . or
If you happen to be graced,
The creator touches you
With a soulful search.
Then “why” and wonder
Becomes your nature,
Restless wandering your fate.
Silly humans or
Sacred beings,
Never quite believing bodies,
Or finally saved souls.
I’ll take my feelers over yours
Every time.
My peace never incomplete . . .
Yours forever dependent,
Mysteriously flailing and fragile,
Questioning to the end.
That’s it. Isn’t it?
Goodbye.”
